What bullshit. Putin was actively invading Ukraine in east in the Donbas region through all four years of Trump administration. source

All this foreign interference and at the top we have Don-n-Boris going for the full timeshare lunch in Moscow.

I think Vlad convinced a lot of these high school idiots we elect to lead us that he’ll go nuclear unless he gets shit, and I think they all ate it up. And the money.

So Ukraine should not fear a Trump presidency?

He gives a good answer but ignores what the guy has already said, basically doesn't address the GOP candidate's statements on wanting Ukraine to surrender or accept terms now, etc.

He was much tougher on Syria than the Democrat administrations.

This I never quite understood, but Obama was hamstrung by a GOP Senate on this. The GOP Senate (same majority leader) didn't attempt to retain his successor in the same way. So it's not a fair comparision.

Overall, reads like a rose-tinted and unrealistically hopeful take. Too much sugarcoating to be taken seriously.
